Over Silton: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you come to Over Silton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Over Silton and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Over Silton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Over Silton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Typically the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Over Silton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Do you need sink repair in Over Silton?

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim

  • How the colour is matched
